Per TICA rules, only one cat or two kittens will be
allowed per single cage, and two cats or four kittens per double cage. A
single cage is 21" tall, 21" deep, and 21" wide. A double cage is 21"
tall, 21" deep, and 45" wide. Bring curtains, towels, or other material
to cover the top, floor, sides, and back of the cage. Each entry is
entitled to a single cage space. If you enter two cats, you get two
single cages which can be converted into a double cage. If you want a
double cage for a single entry, you must pay the fee for an additional
half cage; be sure to request an additional half cage on the Summary
Sheet. The club has double wire cages only,
with a divider in the middle.

Your personal cage must fit our benching
space. If you have a single size personal cage
you must purchase an additional 1/2 cage space in order to use your
cage. If your personal cage
is longer than 45", you must purchase a groom space. See Summary Sheet.
If your personal cage is deeper than 21", it can not be used. Please
indicate on the Summary Sheet if you will be bringing your own cage(s).
The club has double wire cages only, with a
divider in the middle.

Due to lack of space in this show hall, exhibition/sale cages
are not available for this show.

You may bring non-competing (ex/sale) entries ONLY if they fit
into your existing cage space. The catalog will list all Exhibition and For Sale
entries. You must complete an entry form for every kitten or cat
for sale or on exhibition; per TICA rules, no cat or kitten will be
allowed in the benching area if it is not listed in the catalog. There
will be absolutely no sales allowed from carriers. No cat or kitten may
be confined to a carrier during show hours.

In order to be
allowed in the show hall, kittens must be at least 3 calendar months
of age (not 12 weeks). To be allowed in the show hall on Saturday, kittens
must have been born on or before December 11, 2016; and to be

before December 12, 2016. These rules will be
strictly enforced. Please be prepared to produce a copy of the litter

Due to lack of space in this show hall, grooming spaces
are available for purchase only if space
allows. See Summary Sheet.

Our grooming spaces are the size of a double cage (21" deep x 45" wide). If
you need a grooming space, you must purchase it. Due to
space limitations and fire regulations, no personal grooming tables will be allowed.

Household Pets over 8 months old must be altered
(neutered or spayed). Household Pets from 4 to 8 months old are entered
in the Household Pet Kitten class, and can be either altered or
unaltered. Household pets need not be registered in order to compete.
When entering a Household Pet, be sure to indicate the cat's color and
pattern on the entry form. Please telephone the entry clerk if you have
any questions.

This is a non-vetted show. Every cat that enters the
show hall must conform to normally accepted health requirements and be
up-to-date on its vaccinations. Front and back claws must be clipped.
Cats with suspected contagious or infectious illness or with parasites
will be removed from the show hall. Cats from households with contagious
or infectious illness within the last 21 days are ineligible for entry
to this show. Cats entering Canada must have proof of current rabies
vaccination.

If you would like to clerk, please indicate this on
the Summary Sheet. We particularly need head ring clerks. Clerks will
receive lunch, plus $35 CDN for each full day of clerking.
Clerks will be paid after clerking and after
their ring cards have been checked; please do not deduct clerking fees
from entry fees. Preference will be given
those clerks in the TICA clerking program and those clerking 2 days.
The club reserves the right to change the request.
